“You’re out of grapes”-BWAHAHA. Oh, Dis, mithril heart and spine. Okay, I’ve never had such emotion reading the part about Arwen and Frodo, or Gimli and Eomer resolving their conflict before. So many feels! ARAGORN REMEMBERED BOROMIR’S PROMISE OF PENNANTS!! Pippin + Glorfindel = headaches. Dain understanding Hrera better than Balin? Priceless. Oh my heart. Breaking along with the fellowship. You. Left. It. On. A. Cliffhanger. This will either go very badly, or very silly.

AHHHHH asldkjfghlajhsdfa YOU ARE MADE OF PUREST UNTARNISHED AWESOME, THANK YOU SO MUCHHHH

heheheh Gimizh ❤ my tiny terror child! DIS dear lord I am so cruel to her and she is so damned. awesome. 

Eeeee so thrilled you liked the way I took the canon sections and twisted them! The Frodo and Arwen meeting has always struck me as a bit too loose, so I pulled it tighter, and the Eomer-enters-as-King moment has always felt too pat. I mean, the guy was 3rd Marshall of the Riddermark – Theodred was the one groomed for the crown, not Eomer. So, I made it more about him going ‘WHOA THIS IS REALLY. REALLY OVERWHELMING.’ – and then the Gimli scene is his escape from that, heh! (ALSO GIMLI YOU SMOOTHIE. ‘My heart is given to the morning’ YOU SMOOTH SMOOTH BASTARD.)

YEP, THAT’S RIGHT. BOROMIR’S ‘WHITE TOWER OF ECTHELION’ SPEECH. I WENT THERE. I REFERENCED IT. 

(“I would see the glory of Gondor restored. Have you ever seen it, Aragorn?

The White Tower of Ecthelion, glimmering like a spike of pearl and silver, its banners caught high in the morning breeze. Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing of silver trumpets?”)

BECAUSE BOROMIR. THAT’S WHY. ARAGORN DID NOT EVER FORGET. 

oh you just know Pippin and Glorfindel ended up dancing on the table together at some point. 😀

HEHEHEHEH DAIN. Balin is clever af, but Dain understands people :)))

*ducks* ooohboy. I’m working as fast as I can on the next one! ALSO THERE WILL BE A SONG. I hope a new song makes up for the cliffie! SORRYYYYY NONNIE SORRY. 

*hugs* you are absolutely wonderful – augh thank you SO SO much!!
